Chapter Seven

Rarity leaned upon the shimmering metal railing, both it and herself bathed in the moonlight above, and he sniffed loudly. Sliding her head to the right, she let herself cry a bit. The My Little Human event went on inside the massive room behind her, but she found herself zoning out a bit.

"If only... he was here..." she murmured, brushing her mane, "The-Big-Humie... why haven't you show up yet?"

"It's my party and I'll cry if I want to!" Sweetie Belle remarked, stepping up behind her sister.

"No kidding," Rarity replied, turning over to look at her sibling face to face, "I can't believe that royal sack of ponyfeathers is acting as if there's no difference between real-life and some Ponynet trolling message board." They both moved a bit closer to the massive double-doors back into the party area. Bright lights and upbeat new wave music shot out of the half-shut windows. "Gosh, Prince Blueblood is just-- just-- unbelievable."

"You're unbelievable! Oh!" cried out a series of ponies as a brash dance rock blasted out of the room's speakers. The lights started to flash a set of strong blues and vibrant greens all over.

"Hey, it's that Saints Row IV song!" Sweetie exclaimed, jumping straight up a bit.

"Wait a moment!" Rarity yelled back, holding Sweetie in the air, "I told you that you can't play anything that 'Mature' rated!" Gosh, will she listen to at least half of the things I say?

The filly looked at the floor as she let out a weak noise.

"Well, never mind," Rarity remarked, putting her sister down, "I suppose I just need to get in there and have a good time, Blueblood or no. After all, I'm surprised at the real-life identities of some of my online friends."

"That's the spirit," Sweetie replied, making that adorable smile of hers that made Ponyville colts and mares alike just want to snuggle her to pieces.

Rarity nodded, and the two white mares made their way towards the door. The ponies inside, after all, seemed to be having such a great time. As the music went on, hips shook even more, with glasses of punch being passed every other second. Rarity hesitated a moment, though, as she placed her hoof on the door's handle. "I just hope--"

"First!" Blueblood cried out as he threw himself out of the doors, knocking both white mares to the right. Smiling widely as he shifted about his mane and rubbed his sides, he looked up at the moon and made an oddly feminine noise. "I knew it. The full moon is out. I can feel its energies, almost."

"Hi..." Rarity muttered, "Blueblood..." That sickly blackness through her insides returned, a feeling that she couldn't stand but could hardly fight off.

"It's no_limit_coltcuddler, missy," the stallion replied, standing up straight and looking very posh somehow, "for tonight."

"Right," Sweetie murmured back. Awkward glances were exchanged all around. Yet the stallion had on that almost sickly-looking gigantic smile, still.

Before Blueblood could say something else, Rarity and her sister ducked back into the party. Oh, praise Celestia, he's not following us back in! Guess he's too busy admiring his own body in the moonlight, sheesh! Sweetie Belle seemed to flow off in the crowd to someplace else. Rarity shrugged for a second as she got herself another punch glass. Love how fruity yet somehow savory we got it!

"Hey, Silent_Rainbows," Pinkie Pie called out, sliding up her body against Rarity's as lights shot down upon them, "I'm loving this party!"

"Hey there, Snake-In-The-Plot," Rarity replied, giggling. They both threw themselves over to the left before shimmying up into the air at the same time, hooves slapping the ground. Laughing, they simultaneously flipped over to the right before wiggling their plots. "It seems great!"

Pinkie slid over to dance with Lyra, and Rarity found herself shifting over to the far right of the room. As Applejack leaned against a column, looking deep in thought, Rarity brushed up against the pretty orange mare. The two smiled at each other.

"So, Fran_the_Fran," the unicorn remarked, "engaged in some deep mental shipping?"

"Hehe, I suppose," Applejack responded as she couldn't help but giggle, her beautiful-looking mane wiggling against the column behind her, "I'm a perverted 'humare' that just can't help it. Shipping humans with humans on their own show is one thing, but I look out at this crowd and find myself crossing over into the dark side: user-shipping."

"Good luck," Rarity commented, and she moved along to another corner of the room. As her eyes migrated about the whole scene, she felt far more at ease than she had before. So what if one or two trolling My Little Human fans are here? Overall, I should be optimistic. It all looks like a success.

"Oooh, careful," said a small voice besides.

"Oh, sorry for bumping up against you Applebloom," Rarity said, "Or should I say Big_Mac's_Hat?"

"I'm just feeling rather intimidated as all," Applebloom replied, looking straight up at the older mare, "after all, My Little Human is a show meant for younger ponies as well as families. But I'm the only pony here in the target demographic besides Sweetie."

"I see," Rarity said, awkwardly rubbing her neck. What the hay can you say back? Sometimes I watch this program on Ponytube and wonder if there's anyone besides adults that are fans watching it with me. Rarity moved over to the window without saying anything else.

As a mellower song by Elvis Coltsello played over the speakers, Rarity took in a deep breath. I know that things are mostly going well here, Blueblood and some others besides. Yet it all is somehow empty without him. The-Big-Humie, I know you're out there, and you agreed that you'd come. I know that our relationship was 'merely online'. Yet our romantic words together meant as much to me coming from a white Ponynet screen as it would have whispered into my ears as I slept.

"Hello," Roseluck commented, knocking Rarity out of her deep thought for a moment.

"Hey, DoctorApples," the white mare remarked to her fellow 'humare', managing to smirk.

Yet Rarity shifted right back into her inner monologue. A lot of fans get super into the humans themselves. Lyra a.k.a. Todd_the_not_so_human even cosplayed as Freddie Mercury when she came in! She gazed over at the mare across from her as Lyra slid her hooves along her smart-looking, shimmering suit and up to the very realistic looking fake-mustache. But, for me, I got so much into the fandom. The show is amazing. Yet, for all its ups and downs, I made fandom connects that seemed to touch my soul, somehow. Melodramatic? Yes. But it's true.

">Implying implications!" yelled a nasty voice.

Rarity slid against the wall and collapsed onto the floor as she saw Prince Blueblood walking about the party once again, making such contorted faces as he regurgitated meme trash. Okay, let's be serious. How the hay do I get rid of him without making an even bigger scene.

"Here." Somebody suddenly set down a glass of punch marked over with black marker scribbles on the ground next to Rarity. She looked up to see none other than CelestiaAteMyHomework himself.

"Spike, what's this?" she asked, taking in a huge breath.

The dragon shifted about in place and tried to suppress a laugh, barely succeeding. "Let's just say it's a glass of punch that contains 'just desserts'." Spike reached over onto an adjacent table and picked up a plate filled with nibble-ready cheese pieces. "For a certain white stallion."

Rarity said nothing back. She merely nodded as she magically lifted up the drink and began to head over into the middle of the crowd of ponies. Everybody seemed into this one Fall Out Foals song, a lot of rhythmic dancing going on around her. Yet she stayed focused on this one special mission.

"Looks like we got a real idiot over here," Blueblood smarted off to nobody in particular, gesturing over with his hoof at Lyra. He went to sip from his own glass, but he found that it was completely empty. "Well, that's no good."

"Here!" Please just take it and drink it without questioning! Even I don't know what's in it!

"Sure," Blueblood remarked, bringing Rarity at ease. She gazed on as the thick liquid slid into the stallion's mouth, his throat moving in such an exaggerated way. Having gulped down half of the drink in one moment, she couldn't help but smile form cheek to cheek, looking all rosy and delighted.

"Hey, Rarity," quietly muttered a stallion from Rarity's back.

"Yes?" she replied, not even turning around. She continued to gaze at Blueblood, who now moved back over to the table covered in various tasty party treats, ones that seemed posh enough for him apparently. Come on, take affect whatever it is.

"Rarity, you should know," said the voice from behind her, "he's here. The-Big-Humie is here."

She gasped as she frantically tried to brush herself off and straighten up her dress. "Oh-- my-- gosh!" She took in another deep breath as she looked at her reflection in the nearby bowl of fried hay strips, seeing that her beautiful mane stretched across her body so perfectly. "Where?"

"It's me, silly."

Rarity flipped around, eyes wide open. "Oh!"

You're killing me, Smalls.

This is brilliant. Wish I had more to say, but nothing I could add would improve on this. Thumbs up'ed and fav'ed. Hope you won't keep us waiting too long for the next chapter.

——I love you for continuing this, Swipes. Probably one of the cleverest and most interesting stories on the site.

The story is almost over, and it won't be long until the next two chapers are done. I love this story so much. The fan response is just great. Thanks for reading. :rainbowkiss:

Yes, YES!:raritystarry:
I can't wait for the finale!:pinkiecrazy:

Liking the story but I wished there was more interaction and dialogue on Rarity finding out who each pony was. I mean doing something so much that it has been keeping you from you real friends, then finding out a few of them are also your online friends as well... I was just hoping for some scene covering that. The reactions would have been fun and/or interesting I'm sure. Especially for Applejack considering shes a down to Equestria type of soul and would not expect her to even be that big on the net or science. And wouldn't Spike swoon just a bit to know that possibly one of his favorite ship authors (I forget if you said his username liked them or not so I may be wrong) is actually Rarity?

Anyways looking forward to the big reveal!

That's a very nice Christmas gift you gave us there Swiper :pinkiehappy: (I know it updated before Christmas but i purposedly kept from reading it until today) Glad to have you back and in a good mood! :pinkiehappy:
